I don't have a back yard, I live in a communal building.
That said, I know this is about backyard frogs but last night I found a frog on the cycle path next to the canal. This was an event and a half because the climate is so cool and the ecosystem so uninteresting around here that frogs are a rare sight. I've seen more newts than frogs, and only dead ones.
The frog was really unresponsive until after I picked it up (I couldn't just leave it there, it would've got squished under someone's wheel eventually) and placed it off the path onto the curb of the canal, where cyclists don't ride. It just shuffled a little in my hand and then sat still again. I wonder if it was unwell? Or maybe just cold? Felt oddly dry, are frogs supposed to feel dry? Aren't they supposed to have that mucous layer to help them breathe? Or is that just some amphibians?
I hope it was okay.
